Swim lanes illustrating the patient experience on a trial. For early-phase trials, the swimmers plot is used to track individual patients on a trial, including time on and off therapy, adverse events, progression events, and the point at and the reason for which therapy is stopped. Progression in individual disease manifestations and other significant events are recorded, including those that did not lead to trial discontinuation and those that did. Pragmatically, each line shows the duration on therapy. Note that this particular example depicts a trial in progress. NLCB, no longer clinically benefiting; PSA, prostate-specific antigen; rPFS, radiographic progression-free survival; SAE, serious adverse event.
